  3. There is no "leg wrap" but I think what your referring to is a leg
    around.

    For tips, I would say get it down to where you can do it with tree, and
    then try it as a mount, as it is generally easier that way. Once you
    have the mount down, try it normally. Good luck.

  4. Also try these:
    1) Stand on say the left crank, hold onto the seat, lean to the uni
    left, and kick your right leg way out to the right.

    2) Same as above, but hold onto the seat with your right hand, reach
    behind you and grab the sole of your right foot. I think it looks
    better if you also look way over to your left at your right foot.

    3) Start as in #1 but let the uni drop to your right and catch it with
    the seatpost on your toes and kick it back up.

    I have no idea if these are harder or easier than a seat wrap, but they
    are related, and getting better at one would make it easier to do the
    others.

    Edit: Dan Heaton does the third one in I think Universe II
